Thermal effective Lagrangian of generalized electrodynamics in static gravitational fields

الأصل · EN

In this paper we compute the effective Lagrangian of static gravitational fields interacting with thermal fields of generalized electrodynamics at high temperature. We employ the usual Matsubara imaginary-time formalism to obtain a closed form expression to the thermal effective Lagrangian at one-loop and two-loop order, in an arbitrary ω-dimensional spacetime, in which the equivalence between the static hard thermal loops and those with zero external energy-momentum is widely explored. Afterwards, the symmetries of the resulting expressions are discussed as well as the presence of the Tolman local temperature.
